I saw the movies first. After seeing them of course I wanted to read the books. I ordered the cd's, and felt glad to learn that the Silmarillion told the story of the first age. Having not read any of the books, I decided to start with Silmarillion, figuring that I would read them in chronological order. wwowowowowowowowowowow! I felt the most shocked and amazed at the last chapter of course, and learning about Gandalf just filled in everything, I felt ecstatic. I then followed that up with the Hobbit and the LoTR bookss. Now of course I start with Hobbit, then LoTR, then Silmarillion.
